Bear Paw Development Corporation is a private non-profit organization created for the purpose of administering programs to help improve regional economic conditions in Hill, Blaine, Liberty, Chouteau and Phillips Counties and the Fort Belknap and Rocky Boy's Indian Reservations.

Montana is a powerhouse. For generations, our natural resources have powered this nation’s homes, cities and economy. And we stand to keep powering America for generations to come as one of the top producers of biofuels and bio-energy.

Through hard work and innovation, Montana can remain one of the nation’s top energy producers, preserve our state’s natural resources and create new markets and jobs. On top of all that, our growing biofuels industry stands to one day make our nation and military independent from foreign oil.

But this success requires support in Congress and the economic predictability provided by the Renewable Fuel Standard, which sets annual targets for the use of renewable fuel in our transportation fuel mix.
